Some gearporn from the annual modular synth meet in Fischbach/Germany, the so-called Happy Knobbing. And yes I know that it means something very different outside of Germany.

There were at least 4 EMS, a Serge, an Easel, a 208, a Kilpatrick Audio modular, and lots of eurorack and other formats. And if you look close enough you might spot a very interesting Buchla format prototype at about 3:34

I'm not a synths dealer and I'm not aware of an inexpensive Synthi secret market, please don't ask me if I know one for sale.
I don't offer support of any kind to people attempting to build clones of EMS equipment.

It's so nice that Germany has caught up on Buchla & Serge. 10-12 years ago people still had that mindset that analog sequencers were invented by Moog and greatly refined by SSB, when actually the whole scene was years behind on (and apparently oblivious to) the American scene.

There have been a lot of changes. But mostly towards Eurorack. Buchla and especially Serge still remains rare here.

I was especially surprised that noone showed up in Fischbach with a 4u Random Source Serge, because Random Source is a German maker. But maybe they are more successful outside of Germany.
